How Friends of Tryon Creek Is Growing Access to Nature and Education in the Portland-Vancouver Area
In the green refuge of Tryon Creek, two bald eagles soar side by side, their rare appearance seeming to bless the efforts of Friends of Tryon Creek. Their flight marks a promising start for a new education pavilion honoring Indigenous culture and traditions, built to reflect traditional longhouses and plank houses. For those in the Portland and Vancouver metro areas, Tryon Creek is more than a sanctuary; it’s become an educational hub for the region.
